Hello! It seems this bowl is not very active but I'd like it to be. So here's my story: Born & raised in PR, moved to CA for undergrad & have been here since then. I graduated from law school in 2019, followed by a 2 yr bk clerkship. I did the evening program. I really enjoyed law school, in spite of the microaggressions, the late nights, & crazy competition. Love all things diversity in the law. Anyway, currently looking for a position in NYC/DC area. 🤗
Bisexuals are usually gay.
SM2 I don’t get to say what? I cannot own any of the projections you make on my comment to fit your narrative
Yes, bi chick here and the bi guys I’ve been with have tended to be more empathetic, emotionally articulate, non-judgmental. Don’t exhibit as many traits of toxic masculinity
As a straight man, the stigma against bi men is really eye opening here. So many girls will say they are bi and wear it proudly, but when a man is bi he is somehow lesser. Really sad
Bi-erasure and biphobia are so real. It’s disheartening to see :(

It’s a no for me.

A hell no for me.
Some of the answers here made me really sad. It’s interesting to see the difference on the conversations when a woman is bi vs when the man is bi. I would date, already date, and if the future gives me other opportunities, yes, totally would date a bi man. I’m mature enough to keep a conversation open with him to understand if I’m being enough of not, even not having “the equipment”. I believe in trust and communication, and that’s for me much more important than gender.
As a bi man, curious about the no’s here and reasoning? Truly just curiosity around why people wouldn’t prefer to!
Chief
Most definitely. Probably preferred, to be honest
Rising Star
Why?
I would. My assumption on the reasoning of the “no’s” is because people are concerned about the man cheating since he has more options. But, the same is true with a straight man - there are always more fish in the sea (no matter the gender of said fish). If you’re focused on who your bisexual significant other might be attracted to/ maybe cheating, simply because they’re bisexual, that’s your own insecurity.

As I said I'm ok with that. Like if I fell in love with a man that happened to be bi, I wouldn't dump him over it (I think). But I wouldn't seek out bi men or really pursue relationship with one if I knew from beginning

If you are attracted to him, and him to you, what's the prob?
I'm bi and currently in a committed rel with an f (prior to her I was in a 5 year rel with a m). The sight of a man won't make me run off with him - if that's what you're afraid of. If your question comes from a deeper homo or biphobia, that's another issue.
1000% no. It’s not a masculine characteristic in my opinion.
Since when is it become masculine or feminine?
Y’all biphobic
Chief
Yes, and I prefer to (I’m also bi)
Same

As a bi man, I have come to realize I prefer dating bi people. Much more relatable and usually less judgment.
<whispers> you probably already are. 🤷♂️

This is what I tell people when they freak out about the idea of letting people use bathrooms based on gender identity. As a woman, you have most likely been in a bathroom with a transgender woman who has not transitioned, and you didn’t even know it.
I'm a straight dude who is dating a queer chick and we only hang in leftist spaces irl. I just wanna say holy shit this thread was great bait for getting regressives to out themselves. Well done OP.
Straight M here dating a bi F. I love her and she’s an amazing person and her sexual orientation is a complete nonissue. Some of these posts make me sad, accordingly.
Pro
Yep 👍🏼 have and would again
Pro
That being said I wouldn’t date a bisexual man that exhibits more feminine traits. But that’s more of a preference because on the flip I also wouldnt date a man that’s more “alpha”, bi or straight.
Yes, as long as he was honest upfront
I’m bi and I wouldn’t 🙈 I know it doesn’t make sense buttttt….I rather date men that only have slept with women 🤷🏽♀️
Enthusiast
She’s being honest. Cut her some slack.
Rising Star
I wouldn't choose that knowingly. As a straight F, I wouldn't be comfortable dating a guy who I know has an affinity for equipment I don't possess!
Chief
Well, you’re kind of rooting your preferences in a judgement too… just saying
